The use of Youtube in the distribution and consumption of music videos has greatly increased over recent years. Due to it being so accessible and easy to use, as well as it having a wide range of choice and being free, it has quickly become the most popular way for an audience to view a music video. It also attracts an audience as it provides a way to give feedback on the video and inform the artist as to whether they like or dislike the music or video through the comments and likes/dislikes. This entices people as they can provide their own opinion and debate with others about their ideas.
The video has a mix of good and bad reviews in the comments section, however the overall view is that it is a good song and music video, which can be seen from the likes/ dislikes, with the likes being 1,250,000+ compared to the dislikes being 40,000+. These views are reflected in the chart rating, with the song once being in the top 5.
The use of the comments section helps Youtube as it shows they are providing a platform to which an audience can communicate with other audience members and the artists themselves, however it can make or break an individual video as bad comments will discourage people from enjoying the music video, or point out mistakes that may have been created in the production by highlighting certain times during the video that other audience members should specifically look out for errors in.
As an institution Youtube is very successful, with over a billion users accessing the site daily. This then reflects into the huge amount of people that subscribe to music channels, such as Vevo. Vevo is one of the most popular music channels that release official music videos for all types of music, although it is predominantly pop music on their channel. They boast an impressive 1,059,700,000+ subscriber count and over 523,754,380,000+ views, showing that Youtube is now one of the most successful places for a music video.
